MOON IN ECLIPSE, by IBN HAMDIS First Line: Whenas the swarming flood of night Last Line: Its blackness o'er. | |||
Whenas the swarming flood of night Was ebbing from the sky The moon, eclipsing, lost the light Of half its eye. The moon a blacksmith's mirror seemed That, furnaced more and more, Glowed, till the fiery crimson streamed Its blackness o'er. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BUT NOT TO ME by SARA TEASDALE THE CALL TO ARMS by CARL JOHN BOSTELMANN THREE PORTRAITS by GAMALIEL BRADFORD |
